A TRAGIC DEATH.
Tragic Death of a Father Deserted by
His Child.

BosToN, May 20th.-The Marquis De
Sempe, an INDECENT French nobleman, met
strange death yesterday on the Boston
and Providence road, few miles from
here. He boarded an express train Just as
it was leaving the station. His dress was
all disheveled, and he said he wanted to
catch his daughter, who was running away
to Paris. He found the young lady in a
parlor car in company with female COM
panion, and there was an exciting scene
The old man had no money and the con-
Suddenly he went out on the platform and
deliberately threw himself under the
wheels. He was killed instantly
The Marquis has been in Boston about
two years. His friends say that he has
pretended to earn his living by teaching
French. His daughter came to this coun-
try only two weeks ago at her fathers re-
quest. 1t is stated that she decided to
leave him by the advice of priest, who
told her she ought to return to Paris. Her
companion was the wife of another French
man of this city, who was going with her
to New York to see her off on board the
steamship for Havre. The daughter was
allowed to proceed to New York without
knowing the fate which befeii her father.
LATER-THE DAUGHTER NOT TO BLAME.
BOSTON, May 2Oth.-lnQulry into the af-
fair reveals the fact that De Lamps (who
was in reality Count de la Tourasse) had
fed from France that he was living here
with a woman not his wife, and that his
daughter-when she came here and learned
the facts-sought the advice of a priest,
who advised her to return at once to
France. Her father was an only son of
Francois De Sorbiers de la Tourasse, of the
Castle of Saint Pierre, de la Tourasse. He
gambled, lost his fortune, and got into
trouble, which caused him to leave France.

A FRUGAL MEAL. Friday evening a
stranger entered one of our dining-saloons
and modestly asked permission to sit at
one of the tables. The request was granted,
and the stranger took his seat, and taking
from his pocket some crackers and cheese,
proceeded to eat them. A moment later
one of the attendants had occasion 10 go to
the water cooler. seeing which the stranger
politely asked: Won't you please hand
me glass of water?" The request was
made SO politely, and withal so coolly, that
the waiter could bat comply, and no doubt
thereafter enjoyed seeing the stranger eat
his frugal meal quite rs well as the latter
enjoyed eating it--Proridence Journal.

LAKE LINDEN SWEPT BY THE FLAMES.
HoUGHToN (Mich.), May 20th-5:5O P. NJ
The fire at Lake Linden is now under
control. The flames were first noticed
issuing from the second-story of human
& Trelease's general merchandise store.
Everything was as dry as finder, and de-
spite the heroic efforts of the firemen and
citizens the spread of the flames was very
rapid. In less than two hours after the
first alarm the entire business portion of
the town, from the starting point of the
fire to the public school-house building, was
in ashes. Every saloon but one, and every
store structure, except that occupied by W.
Weber & Co. as meat-market, was de-
stroyed. The loss is terrible on the Lake
Linden people.

The TuIare Water VAR.

TRAvER, May 19th.-The water question
stands in about the same condition TO day
as heretofore reported. S. +. Earl, Secre-
tary of the Land and Water Company. has
been to Visalia, and reports that his attor-
ney had q talk with Judge Cross, who
seems to have changed his mind some
what, as he now claims that this water
question was misrepresented to him by the
other side, and now he will not act further
in the matter until he ascertains the facts.
If there is no damage done by taking the
water out in the bitches he will be very
easy on the companies, and it is reported
that he said that he would raise the in
junction which is now on the several
bitches. Lillis is about satisfied that the
people will have water in spite of him.
We hope that this trouble is about settled.

suised so that it was impossible for him to

fully impressed that the guards at the head
gate are determined set of men, bound to
hold the fort, and will keep the water run
